When to turn the lights on?

[ndonily]

My Clown has been battleing Ich for about a week or so. I came across a thread saying that if you have your lights on in the evening and of during the day this could cause enough stress to the animals for ich to thrive.

I live in a below ground basement sweet but it is still fairly light, I set my timer so the lights come on at 4pm and turn off at 12pm(So I can stair at my nano when I get home from work lol).

Should I change my light cycle to sunrise and sundown? If this is yes I suppose it will have to be done in small increments , so I dont stress all the amazing and life on my rock!!?

Thank you for your replies and advice
Nathan
